But CMM was the kind of guy who would have stuck with me through an illness (as I did with him), was protective of me, and pretty much thought the sun rose and set on me. He packed me lunches with notes in them, cooked me dinner every night, worried about my well-being. CMM and I probably argued more than I ever have with a partner, because it took me quite a while to learn to navigate around his obsessive compulsive personality disorder traits, and we were both stubborn people. But it would be lovely to have anther partner in the future who put as much into the relationship as I do, the way CMM did.
I could have written that ^^^ ....K and I felt that we argued too much....
In reality, and my brother put it best after observing us for several years, was that we communicated passionately.....and at least it was communication...
She told me that she was sorry that she was sick, and that I didn't sign up for this....
I told her that I signed up for her....and whatever that entailed....
